I was looking through the coords for frivolous decimal numbers and spaces. I then realized there was a missing bracket in the second sea raider spawn point. 
Well I'm glad I've got this out of the way. Thank you very much for your help.

Afternoon everybody,
How does one know when a vertex mesh animation(like the bow)is in sync with the actual animation that uses that mesh animation?
In other words how can you tell when a mesh animation is in sync with a specific animation?(ex. bow mesh and ready bow animation)

Okay, so I've been trying to add extra text to various legendary weapons. But, I am unsure of how to start a new line, as it currently just makes a really small font on one line, and extends across and past the edge of the screen.
I was under the impression that a backslash would work to create a new line, but it's not seeming to work.
Taken from script_game_get_item_extra_text:

I forgot where the settings are to manage how geometry/UVs mirror over for face models.
The mirrored half of my face is displaying the UV in the wrong direction and I need to change it, if that won't work then I need to disable the mirror operation entirely and do it manually myself, anybody know where in openbrf/python modules that I might find the options?

Thanks!
Edit: I feel stupid for asking this, but is there a way to only allow thrust attacks, not swing attacks? I set swing damage to 0 but I can still do swing attacks.
Code:
["mackie_swordcane_blade", "Innui Swordcane", [("mackie_swordcane_blade",0)], itp_type_one_handed_wpn|itp_primary, itc_longsword|itcf_carry_sword_left_hip, 8409, weight(3)|difficulty(14)|spd_rtng(163)|weapon_length(80)|swing_damage(0,cut)|thrust_damage(50,pierce), imodbits_none ],cwr
No, I use the module system. Text editing will get overwritten any time I compile the module system, so that won't work.
I looked through header_items, so I'm not even sure that I'll be able to do anything about it.

you can use morghs for the module system as well as .txt.
basically get rid of itc_longsword, and add in all the abilities you want to give it. itc_longsword is just a package of abilities for quick item creation.
give it all the 2h blocks in each directon, itc_carry_sword_hip or whatever it"s called, 2h stab, and then itc_show_holster_when_drawn if you have a scabbard mesh. there might be a couple more you have to add to most weapons but i'm tired, and my recall sucks

itcf_thrust_onehanded is what was needed, thank you for the tip.

I am developing a mod called Myrtana at War which is a mod based on a game called Gothic 3. In the game there is an orc faction (they are orcs) and there are humans that work for the orcs but belong in the same faction. I would like to ask you would it be possible to give an option in a village to either recruit orcs or human mercs. Could somebody please help me with this? All i came to is errors.
Be aware (in multiplayer mode, at least): if you use it on a horse to forcibly dismount the rider, they will also have a messed up collision object / collision synchronization with the server will be broken. See bug report (not addressed).Somebody said:

With your script you won't get any tier upgrades if you have a higher relationship with your villages but it is a random effect which tier you get. You could create new troop tiers for your orcs, like slot_faction_tier_1b_troop, etc., this should just work fine. You then would also need a new slot where you can save a value in order to use it in both update_volunteer scripts.
- so, in module_constants
--------------------------
look for the below slots and then add your new constant:
slot_center_npc_volunteer_troop_type = 90

slot_center_mercenary_troop_type = 90
slot_center_mercenary_troop_amount= 91

slot_center_volunteer_troop_amount= 93

Or, if you want to create a recruitment option where you can ADDITIONALLY recruit orcs, then you can follow the steps below. This should definitely work, as I used something similar in order to recruit mercenaries from castles.
1) you need a new constant in module_constants
------------------------------------------------
in module constants somewhere around the other slot_center stuff like here, for instance:
slot_center_npc_volunteer_troop_type = 90
slot_center_npc_volunteer_troop_amount = 91
slot_center_mercenary_troop_type = 90
slot_center_mercenary_troop_amount= 91
slot_center_volunteer_troop_type = 92
slot_center_volunteer_troop_amount= 93
slot_center_village_orcs_amount = 94 ## this is your new constant
2) a new menu in module_game_menus
-----------------------------------
("recruit_orcs_village",
[
(party_slot_eq, "$g_encountered_party", slot_party_type, spt_village), ## villages only
(party_slot_ge, "$g_encountered_party", slot_center_village_orcs_amount, 1),
],"Recruit Orcs.",
[
(try_begin),
(call_script, "script_cf_enter_center_location_bandit_check"),
(else_try),
(jump_to_menu, "mnu_recruit_orcs_village"),
(try_end),
]),
###
insert it right after or above the below, in game_menus
("village_manage",
[
(neg|party_slot_eq, "$current_town", slot_village_state, svs_looted),
(neg|party_slot_eq, "$current_town", slot_village_state, svs_being_raided),
(neg|party_slot_ge, "$current_town", slot_village_infested_by_bandits, 1),
(party_slot_eq, "$current_town", slot_town_lord, "trp_player")
]
,"Manage this village.",
[
(assign, "$g_next_menu", "mnu_village"),
(jump_to_menu, "mnu_center_manage"),
]),
("recruit_volunteers",
[
(call_script, "script_cf_village_recruit_volunteers_cond"),
]
,"Recruit Volunteers.",
[
(try_begin),
(call_script, "script_cf_enter_center_location_bandit_check"),
(else_try),
(jump_to_menu, "mnu_recruit_volunteers"),
(try_end),
]),
####
3) at the very end of game_menus you insert the below menu (this is referenced by the one above)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(
"recruit_orcs_village",0,
"{s18}",
"none",
[
(party_get_slot, "rc_troop_amount", "$g_encountered_party", slot_center_village_orcs_amount),
(party_get_free_companions_capacity, ":free_capacity", "p_main_party"),

(assign, ":party_capacity", ":free_capacity"),
(val_min, ":party_capacity", ":gold_capacity"),
(try_begin),
(gt, ":party_capacity", 0),
(val_min, "rc_troop_amount", ":party_capacity"),
(try_end),
(assign, reg5, "rc_troop_amount"),
(assign, reg7, 0),
(try_begin),
(gt, "rc_troop_amount", ":gold_capacity"),
(assign, reg7, 1),
(try_end),
(store_mul, reg6, "rc_troop_amount", 20), ## cost is 20 dinar per hired orc unit, adjust it if you wish
(str_store_troop_name_by_count, s3, "trp_orc_unit", "rc_troop_amount"),
(str_store_string, s18, "@{reg5} {s3} volunteer to follow you."),
(set_background_mesh, "mesh_pic_recruits"),
],
[
("continue_not_enough_gold",
[
(eq, reg7, 1),
],
"I don't have enough money...",
[
(jump_to_menu, "mnu_town"),
]),
("recruit_them",
[
(eq, reg7, 0),
(gt, reg5, 0),
],
"Recruit them ({reg6} denars).",
[
(call_script, "script_recruit_orcs_from_villages"),
(jump_to_menu, "mnu_town"),
]),
("forget_it",
[
(eq, reg7, 0),
(gt, reg5, 0),
],
"Forget it.",
[
(jump_to_menu, "mnu_town"),
]),
],
),
4) in module_scripts
---------------------
a) insert the following right after the script village_recruit_volunteers_recruit
#script_recruit_orcs_from_villages
# INPUT: none
# OUTPUT: none
("recruit_orcs_from_villages",
[
(party_get_slot, "rc_troop_amount", "$g_encountered_party", slot_center_village_orcs_amount),
(party_get_free_companions_capacity, ":free_capacity", "p_main_party"),
(val_min, "rc_troop_amount", ":free_capacity"),
(store_troop_gold, ":gold", "trp_player"),
(store_div, ":gold_capacity", ":gold", 20), ## cost is 20 dinar per hired orc unit, adjust it if you wish
(val_min, "rc_troop_amount", ":gold_capacity"),
(party_add_members, "p_main_party", "trp_orc_unit", "rc_troop_amount"),
(party_set_slot, "$g_encountered_party", slot_center_village_orcs_amount, 0),
(store_mul, ":total_cost", "rc_troop_amount", 20), ## cost is 20 dinar per hired orc unit, adjust it if you wish
(troop_remove_gold, "trp_player", ":total_cost"),
]),
b) insert the following right after the script update_mercenary_units_of_towns
#script_update_orc_units_villages
# INPUT: none
# OUTPUT: none
("update_orc_units_villages",
[
(try_for_range, ":current_village", villages_begin, villages_end), ## you won't even need the try_for_range here, theoretically, but you never know, maybe you want to expand the script one day
(store_random_in_range, ":amount", 5, 16),
(party_set_slot, ":current_village", slot_center_village_orcs_amount, ":amount"),
(try_end),
]),
5) in order to have the units updated regularly, you add the following into simple_triggers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
just look for the below trigger
# Adding mercenary troops to the towns
(72,
[
(call_script, "script_update_mercenary_units_of_towns"),
#NPC changes begin
# removes (call_script, "script_update_companion_candidates_in_taverns"),
#NPC changes end
(call_script, "script_update_ransom_brokers"),
(call_script, "script_update_tavern_travellers"),
(call_script, "script_update_tavern_minstrels"),
(call_script, "script_update_booksellers"),
(call_script, "script_update_villages_infested_by_bandits"),
(try_for_range, ":village_no", villages_begin, villages_end),
(call_script, "script_update_volunteer_troops_in_village", ":village_no"),
(call_script, "script_update_npc_volunteer_troops_in_village", ":village_no"),
(call_script, "script_update_orc_units_villages", ":village_no"), ## this is your new script which was added to the trigger, if it throws errors paste the call_script above the try_for_range, without the ":village_no" at the end
(try_end),
]),
==> this works only for 1 specific orc unit, if you want several different orc units to be recruited from your villages or a random one out of a certain range (like mercenary units in taverns), you have to create a 2nd constant where you define the troop type, i.e. slot_center_orc_unit_type or something along the line.
------------------------------------------------
in module constants somewhere around the other slot_center stuff like here, for instance:
slot_center_npc_volunteer_troop_type = 90
slot_center_npc_volunteer_troop_amount = 91
slot_center_mercenary_troop_type = 90
slot_center_mercenary_troop_amount= 91
slot_center_volunteer_troop_type = 92
slot_center_volunteer_troop_amount= 93
slot_center_village_orcs_amount = 94 ## this is your new constant
2) a new menu in module_game_menus
-----------------------------------

Okay, so I've got some problems adding new skins. I thought this would be easy, as the undead resources are already in Native, and ghoul textures are in M&B 0.202. So, I added the undead and ghoul skins to module_skins, here:
And made sure they were in header_troops as flags. I made some troops for them, and now, I get a crash any time I encounter something with the undead skin, and the ghoul skin doesn't work at all. (just shows up as a normal male)
I know there is something I am missing here, but I'm completely lost as to what it is.
I have first tried it all myself (I didn't think it would be too hard) then I tried it with Keedo's (I think it was Keedo, I'm not completely sure now to be honest) undead pack, but it told me to do exactly what I did, with nothing different. I know Keedo's tutorial was for the original M&B, so I'm wondering if there's something new with Warband that I'm missing, or if anyone knows what is going on here.
Search Function, both in the module system and on the forums, was no help, just leading back to what I have already done.
Edit: Got ghouls working, undead still crash though.
Edit2: Undead don't cause crashes anymore, but the textures don't work properly:
As you can see, the left hand, as well as the face textures, are bugged. Does anyone have an idea?
